Call for stories/quotes: women diagnosed at age 65 or over

The policy and campaigns team at Breast Cancer Care is currently putting together a policy briefing on women of 65 or over and breast cancer. This will summarise research evidence about key issues facing women at this age and their experiences of breast cancer diagnosis, treatment and services, and life after hospital treatment. Where appropriate, it will identify recommendations for service improvements aimed at healthcare professionals and/or policy makers.

We are looking for quotes and stories to illustrate various parts of the briefing. If you have had a diagnosis of primary or secondary breast cancer at the age of 65 or over and want to take part, we’d like to hear from you. Please email Lizzie Magnusson (Policy Analyst) for more information:
